Police Diving - Recreational Rescue Diver Courses

Recreational Rescue Diver Courses

The term "Rescue Diver" in all recreational diving training agencies mainly means self rescue or buddy rescue under the normal diving conditions that someone would dive, how to avoid accidents by recognizing panicked divers and equipment failures and in case of an accident, basic first aid and how to manage a scene until the professionals arrive. Although these are good courses for improving someone’s diving skills and further progressing in diving education they are not professional courses. However many professional courses would expect a participant to have progressed to that level in the recreational diving before becoming a professional.

Famous quotes containing the words rescue and/or courses:

    The individual woman is required ... a thousand times a day to choose either to accept her appointed role and thereby rescue her good disposition out of the wreckage of her self-respect, or else follow an independent line of behavior and rescue her self-respect out of the wreckage of her good disposition.
    Jeannette Rankin (1880–1973)

    However, our fates at least are social. Our courses do not diverge; but as the web of destiny is woven it is fulled, and we are cast more and more into the centre. Men naturally, though feebly, seek this alliance, and their actions faintly foretell it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
